Many engineering structures have to be designed to withstand relatively large transient loads. The loadings can represent:
Drop testing, Impact loading, Shock, Underwater explosion, Blast loading and General transient loading.
The assessments are normally performed to identify one or more of the following:
Peak stress levels, Peak deflections, velocities or accelerations or Forces carried by mounts or connections.
Using finite element analysis (FEA), the response to a shock or transient loading can be determined.
